This is a great guessing game to play with a wide age range of children. The Nursery School children really enjoyed trying to figure out which animal picture was on their head. **We reviewed all the cards we were using before we played to help give them an idea of what they may be. Some of the questions they used to figure out their animal were:-Where do I live?- What color am I?- What do I sound like?- Do I have legs? wings? fur? feathers?- What do I

Emma came up with a great animal game for us to play today. The children had to act like various animals by moving and making sounds. Then, using their very great listening ears they listened for Emma to call "feeding time" when all the animals gathered. FUN FUN

From behind the art shelf I could hear the faint sound of children singing. As I sneaked up on them with the camera the singing suddenly stopped. It then became a game that when they could see Miss Frieze the singing would stop. With 6 kids squished in the tiny little bus it was surprising to me that there was no arguing at all. Just a "trick Miss Frieze" kind of morning.

We now have an opening for a Tuesday morning (9:00 to 11:30) Nursery School spot. If you would like to add a 3rd session to your child's program, or if you know someone who is interested in placing their child in Nursery School please speak with Miss Frieze to make these arrangements.

In addition- there are afternoon (12:30 to 3:00) spaces available for all days.

Let's work together to keep our classes full for maximum learning potential!!!

Please note that our field trips to the Manitoba Hydro Office have been changed. They were originally scheduled to be this week, however due to an increased workload at the office they have been changed to the following dates:Tuesday, January 22nd 2013 @ 10:00 a.m. & 1:00 p.m.Wednesday, January 23rd 2013 @ 10:00 a.m. & 1:00 p.m.

Drop-off and pick-up times remain the same as always at the classroom for your child's class time.Please be sure your child is dressed appropriately for the weather on these field trip days as we will be walking to and from the hydro office.

*If the temperature is colder than -25 degrees on these days we will have to postpone the field trip to another day due to licensing regulations which restrict us from being outdoors in those temperatures.**

Below are some of the books we will explore this month to feed our hunger for learning about... EVERYTHING around us!! I will do my best to answer all the questions of WHY and HOW... Ready, set, let's Goooooo!
